Bayesian inference in linear models with a random Gaussian matrix : Algorithms and complexity
—We consider the Bayesian inference of a random Gaussian vector in a linear model with a random Gaussian matrix. We review two approaches to finding the MAP estimator for this m...

Mixing Time Power Laws at Criticality
We study the mixing time of some Markov Chains converging to critical physical models. These models are indexed by a parameter β and there exists some critical value βc where th...
